Usually our drill is £24.50 - our Red Strawberry Thief drill is currently on sale for £15.00 a metre as we printed too much!
Strawberry Thief is another of our licensed William Morris design that was first produced in 1883. It marked a triumph for Morris as it was produced as he perfected the indigo-discharge technique of printing at Merton Abbey. We also have Strawberry Thief Red within our collection. The design was inspired by William Morris’s observation of the thrushes under the strawberry nets at his home, Kelmscott Manor.
Our heavyweight cotton drill fabric is suitable for many different projects, it's our heaviest weave of fabric. Just like all our fabrics, our heavyweight cotton drill fabric is printed in the United Kingdom.
The cotton fabric is 152 cm (60") including a 2.5cm each side salve edge wide. The pattern repeat is 23.5cm. For the fabric length, it's sold by the half metre, so you can choose your length using the drop down above. If you order more than 0.5m in the same order, it will be sent as a continuous length.
We use high quality cotton fabric which is printed in the United Kingdom. Our printer is a long-established British printer. If you would like a closer look at any of our fabrics, you can get in touch and we’ll be happy to send you a free sample if you’re within the UK. Every single one of our William Morris designs are licensed Morris designs. We print and manufacture all of our William Morris designs to our own specifications in terms of both size and colour to best suit our products. We can keep our fabric cheaper than competitors by printing within the UK and reducing transport costs, we are exclusively an online retailer and therefore we don’t need to pay for flashy showrooms! When you purchase from Laura’s Beau, you are purchasing your product directly from the manufacturer and so we can dictate our prices and keep them competitive. So - buy British and buy with confidence that you’re purchasing a licensed William Morris design.
